It would be the first face-to-face meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and an American leader since former President Joe Biden met with Putin in June 2021.

Trump said the two leaders will meet next Friday. It remains unclear whether Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will be involved with the high-stakes summit.

President Donald Trump has set Friday as a deadline for Russia's Vladimir Putin to agree to a ceasefire with Ukraine or face secondary sanctions.
